a kiii and a cackle 

[Bacardo Royale]

Summer Walker outselling both Doja albums and competing with Adele how did that happen?

[Delirious]

What about Ellie Brightest Blue? It's at like 800k units now

[UnusualBoy]

How does this compare to the males? I know Morgan is at #1 with 4 million but Abel, Pope, Juice, Drake.

 

Anyway, low numbers for 30 but if you don't release more singles don't expect your album to be stable and less when it barely has replay value.

 

21 on the other hands, 800k 11 years after its release and while being 14x platinum

 

Taylor slaying as usual

Speak Now and Debut being the only albums missing. Had she released the TVs she would have her entire discography in the top 40.

Last year billboard reported that it's well past 11 million units (I think 11.5).

1989 is at least well over 11 million. 

[suburbannature]

28. Mariah Carey - "Merry Christmas" - 777,000

 

An album from 1994.  

 

The Christmas Queen. Literally who else has sent a 30-year-old Christmas song (or any in the last 50 years) to #1?

[TeemoR]

30. Lana Del Rey - "Born To Die" - 728,000

Billboard reported 10.44 million back in june, 2019. 

10.44 + 1.2 million (after october, 2019) + 200k in between = 11.84 million sales. 

1989 is eligible or 12x platinum in US.
